    Senjutsu - 3rd September 2021

    I know Maiden fans are crazy collectors, but man I don't really see anywhere close to $450 worth in that FC set. I think I'll stick with the regular box set which already expensive enough.

    This one? https://www.amazon.com/Senjutsu-2CD-Deluxe-Mediabook-Limited/dp/B099TS4S97/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=iron+maiden+senjutsu&qid=1626980211&sr=8-4

    New Single - The Writing on the Wall

    A week later and I love this song. I do need to take a break from it until the album is out though as I'm dangerously close to overplaying it. I guess the first new Maiden song in 6 years can have that kind of impact. Regarding production, I do think this sounds better than Book of Souls and...

    Judas Priest

    I really wanted to like this KK Priest project but each of the 3 songs I've heard have not been good at all. Sounds like a mediocre Priest cover band, so, suits Ripper I guess. Skipsville this one is.

    Senjutsu - 3rd September 2021

    After sitting on this news for a few hours I just realized that if BOS was a reinvention (in a way) of the Eddie on the first album cover, this is a reinvention (again, in a way) of the Killers Eddie. BOS - Eddie in front of a background/solid Senjutsu - Eddie with a sharp object

    Senjutsu - 3rd September 2021

    My only slight on the artwork and vibe is that it's two "location" albums in a row. We went from the Mayans to the Samurai and it seems like little more of the same but slightly different (which, I suppose, is an apt metaphor for Maiden in general ha). That and we've already seen iterations...

    Senjutsu - 3rd September 2021

    If I'm not mistaken, this is the most about of solo Steve songs on a Maiden album since The X Factor. I must say, I'm really intrigued by what he brought to the table here. As much as the Harris solo penned songs on the last few albums have been amazing to good, they are all fairly similar...

    Senjutsu - 3rd September 2021

    I'm super excited about this. Love the artwork and am optimistic about the tracklisting. There's a tiny 20 second snippet of audio of FB as well, not sure if it's from a song or not, and it's just drums, but it sounds cool. 7 long weeks to go now. I saw the news and immediately put in for...

    New Single - The Writing on the Wall

    Not sure if this has been pointed out, but I also love that they are seemingly going with the 'full' logo on this one like they did with TBOS. The chopped off logo that was used from Virtual XI through Final Frontier never ever looked right to me. Great song!

    Iron Maiden studio album 17 rumours and speculations

    I just want something new-ish that isn't a vinyl repress or a beer. My standards have been lowered, 2020 style.

    Grave Digger

    It really seems that Grave Digger needs an epic theme to get the most of out them. I'd say this is easily their best album since probably Ballads of a Hangmen. I'm actually really surprised at how great it is as I've found pretty much everything since Ritt has joined the band pretty disappointing.

    Blind Guardian

    This album reminds me a lot of Dream Theater's Astonishing in the way that I can tell a lot of work went into it but after a few spins I basically have zero desire to ever listen to it again.

    Maiden albums you can’t get into?

    Virtual XI is the only one I never listen to.

    Awesome podcast - really look forward to listening to this every Friday morning. Keep up the awesome work!

    2015 Remasters on CD

    I bought all of the remasters via Amazon here in the US and all of mine are glossy aside from Number of the Beast and Piece of Mind. I have no idea why and it's kinda weird - seems like there was some inconsistencies in the packaging for that first set.

    LEGACY OF THE BEAST 2019

    For what it's worth, the folks in my section (102) were going apeshit the whole night, probably the most fun crowd I've experienced at a Maiden show in a long time. You could tell lots of folks had been waiting years (I don't believe Maiden has played Pittsburgh since 2010) to see them again...

    LEGACY OF THE BEAST 2019

    Saw the show in Pittsburgh on Saturday and of the shows I've seen this year (Bristow and Philly) this was by far the best performance. Just amazing on all levels.

    Iron Maiden studio album 17 rumours and speculations

    I always thought the end of the year was a no-no for new releases. I honestly can't think of many big ones that come out after November for the most part. Although that is obviously not at all scientific in any way, I could be mistaken. I can't see Maiden just plopping an album out. They'll...

    LEGACY OF THE BEAST 2019

    I figured they rotate the Trooper backdrop because the other one, the Riggs Trooper, is already stashed away for the next stage set. I can't recall them using the same exact backdrop on tours in a row. I've seen two shows so far this tour - Bristow (fellow VA resident here) and Philly and...

    LEGACY OF THE BEAST 2019

    I'm surprised nobody mentioned Bruce going off meter quite a lot during the VA show - I can't recall seeing him do that much before. Show was great as always. From where I was FTGGOG kinda killed the momentum a bit and it doesn't help that there's no real stage bells and whistles during that...
